Summer is here-well almost
June 16th, 2009, 5:16 PM by AdminI hope today finds you well.
Wow, long time has passed again-I don’t seem to blog all that much. Life has been kinda crazy. I work hard all day and then I am spent and not worth much in the evenings. I need to pay more attention.
I am sad to report that I lost one of my favorite lizards from illness. I cryed for days. I have others home sick as well. One of my dragons that was sick has recovered and I was happy to learn today that his poop was free of parasites. Woo HOO. That is huge. He is so much better too. Makes me realize that there is something wrong with the remaining two dragons. Tough part is getting poop samples when I can get them to the vet. Yes, poop is required since they don’t talk.
What else is new. I’ve been spending lots of time in the yard which looks fantastic. My neighbors asked be if I was trying to compete with Longwood Gardens. That place has imaculate lawns and a conservatory with tons of plants- especially orchids, which I love.
Anyway, that was quite a compliment. My have a small waterfall and a baby sized pond with plants everywhere and lots of color.
I have to confess that I have mixed feelings about my yard. We used to have this large maple tree in our yard. Nothing grew under it and we had a mud pit. Some local contractors trimmed that tree but I guess they took too much and the tree died. I think it was sick or something because it died so easily. I hated the idea of cutting it and risking losing it. We lost it anyway. I thought the goddess might be upset, after all I was a bit. But we now have a yard that we can use and I have grass growing and lots of plants. It went from a dark plantless area to of of tremendous beauty. I still feel bad about the tree but I think the transformation helps to soften the blow.
My websites are doing a bit better, but that’s not saying much. My soap site has only had a few sales (Sudzfactory.com). Ageless Treasures is doing better. Most of my sales and interest is faeries. Maybe I’ll sell off all the other stuff and just do faeries. Hmmm.
Food for thought anyway.
I’ve spent a lot of my time with my nephew. He says we adopted him in his 90th trimester. (he’s 28). He’s had some problems and we have been helping him out. He doesn’t get much help from his parents. They just seem to pick on him. My husband and I have been trying to change his negative thinking and provide a supported enviomnment for him. I think it is helping. I see changes in him for the better. So I keep one with that and that occupies a lot of my time. I’m beginning to think he is a witch too- some weird things happen around him.
Well I am going for now. Take care, all of you and I hope to hear from you soon.
